And yet, when the mother-daughter duo stepped out in New York City Tuesday, Frankel's bundle of joy looked remarkably grown up. Sporting a full head of blonde hair with a butterfly clip, the smiling tot waved to photographers while being cradled by her mother.

Earlier this month, Frankel defended her decision to raise her daughter as a vegetarian. "If Bryn is older and wants something at a party that isn't vegetarian, I don't want her to feel ostracized. She'll find her way," she wrote on her website.

Bryn still consumes some animal products, though. "I chose not to have her be vegan because I believe she needs the fat and protein in milk," Frankel explained. "Sometimes I need her to fill up on organic cheese. Her health comes first."
